Brees overrated? What?
For all their passing, skill, and hype they each only won once. I think they are closer to Stafford then they are to Manning.

Brees is one of the most accurate passers of all time and is #2 in career passing yards and TDs. He did all of this at 6’0”. Only reason he doesn’t have an MVP is the media’s infatuation with Fivehead Manning and Rodgers. Toss in 4 5000 yard seasons and you have one of the most prolific passers the game has ever known. Stafford wishes he was Drew.

Stafford has thrown for 5k and come close a couple times they each have 1 ring. Stafford got stuck on the Lions where Brees got better teams his whole career. I still said Brees was better.
